My paintings are inspired by tranquility and spiritual freedom. My work is strongly influenced by Balkan and Eastern-European culture, exploring the myths and primordial female archetypes. I’m concerned with the alienated and isolated individual of today’s life, who lost connection from ‘oneness’ separated from one’s original roots.
When I work, I’m using solely intuition and spiritual awareness. The female figure is the representation of the fragile but determined soul, and to visualize the complexity of emotions I create multiple layers which helps me to restructure the ‘hidden inner beauty’ within the painting.
Valeria was born and studied fine art in Hungary, influenced by its rich artistic culture, and history. As a child she started taking private lessons from recognized artists, and had her first solo exhibition at the age of 16. As a young child she was trained as a gymnast and also learn classical ballet. She was fascinated by this unique art form which lets one express feeling, teaches self discipline, strength and gracefulness. She was amazed by the beauty of the human body, and the ability to be able to appear strong and feminine at the same time. Her education started at Art and Design College before moving onto studying a BA Degree in graphic design. Valeria has had several exhibitions, and has many of her artworks in private collections. She started taking commissions for portraits and working as a painter, illustrator and graphic designer since 1998. She works with various media from oil to digital painting always searching for new ways to express her spiritual views. Her main purpose is to find that hidden inner beauty and restructure it within the work.
Valeria Fulop lives and works in Bristol, UK and shows her work in galleries across the country. She has recently exhibited in the Malvern Theatres and in the Grant Bradley Gallery in Bristol.
